and I’ll never fully understand why they believe that will ever work.

Because usually they're safely tucked away all nice and warm in their houses or apartments, not actually caring beyond the vague notion of "oh nooooo bad things are happening to them oh nooooo..... Anyway as I was saying..."

It's like telling black person "you'll have equality someday, no need to get pushy or inconvenience anyone" in the US in 1865.

Its easy to say something like that when you already enjoy the "comforts" that they don't have.

The issue I have is that many of them can see how they’re being hurt, over and over again, but still refuse to try anything else. They’re so committed to an idea that has never worked or shown to even begin to work.
